Corsair rams

Go to solution Solved by TheMcSame,

Overclocking RAM has little to no effect on gaming (I'm assuming that's what you're doing) unless you're using an APU. Both sticks are guaranteed to overclock to 2133MHz and honestly you don't really need anything faster than 1600MHz (CL9) for gaming but it doesn't really matter.

 

With such a small price difference you might as well go for the one that looks better.

Welcome again tech geniuses I am looking for rams(I killed my adatas probably by electrostatic spark) and I think about corsair vengence lp green 2133 11cl(which would look perfect with my g1.sniper) or vengence pro silver also 2133 cl11 or 10 I think but corsair says that pro are better for overclocking is it true? is any difference between them? in Poland (where I live) price is almost the same lp are even more expensive by sth about 3-4 dollars. And does overclockin on amatour level make any difference ?

Thanks for help in advance

Get the ones that match your colour and won't intefere with your cooler. RAM overclocking is 99% of the time pointless.

This. 1866 I find is more than sufficient to do anything, and seems to be at that good price point where if you go higher, the price goes up a fair bit.
